I scrambled upright to the sound of my cat meowing literally right next to my ear but the sounds of the waves as they crashed down against my body was too fresh and still ringing too loudly in the back of my mind.

Oh, God.

Oh God, it all felt so real...

It was three in the morning.

And I have only slept for less than 30 minutes.

Maybe I was too stressed, too tired from work... is that what this is? Maybe I'm going crazy. Yeah, yeah that must be it.

That was what I was thinking to myself as I tiredly stared at my cat's still puffed-up tail as he pushes himself to mush his face against my shoulder, growling lowly but remaining still as I made my way downstairs.
